Hazy golden orange with a thin white head. Light aroma of banana, peach, orange, and some yeast. Flavors of soft orange, tangerine, peach with a peppery spicy finish. Alcohol is undetectable. Notes say very enjoyable.

On tap at Karl Strauss Carlsbad. Yellow. Nice microfoam white great head. Sweetish creamy taste. Great mouthfeel. Nice mild Belgian yeast clove and banana aroma. Very good. My favorite Karl Strauss beer so far.

On tap @ Hamilton’s San Diego. Sweet Georgia peach comes through in the aroma of this sunset orange hazed brew. Citrus, banana, and buttermilk biscuits linger on the palate. Alcohol is invisible. A great beer; would love more from this brewer if this is the caliber they tend to put out.

On tap @ Hamilton’s S.D. Pours a slightly hazed sunny yellow with some lacing. Banana and were the predominant aromas. Flavor was bready and yeasty.....slightly fruity.

On tap at Hamiltons. Clear golden with a fizzy white head. Sweet pear and banana aroma and taste with a dry citrus finish.

Draught. F.I. brewed at K.S. La Jolla Little head over hazy orange beer. Fusels, esters à gogo, obviously very "willed" Belgian. Rather sweet-fruity (orangerind, strawberry) flavour, obviously, again, (too) warm-fermented... Medium bodied, outspoken alcohol presence. A lot of USA brewers really don’t get the real tripel, no, try as they might. Not to mention the spelling of the word, in endless variations.
